    The weather was uncertain but there were opportunities to appreciate the beauty of the bay and the views over Port Stephens. We took advantage of excellent take away from Giannis and mod Thai. The IGA was small but very useful. It was a good location for exploring Nelson Bay, Fingal Bay and Salamander, all worth a visit

    Shoal bay has always been a holiday destination for us.

    Shoal bay has always been a holiday destination for us. Been many times over the years and it never disappoints. My kids loved it and now the grandkids love the ease of getting to all amenities. The beach is just across the road. Shops within walking distance. Fresh air and wonderful selection is cafes and ice cream shops. The country club is our favourite place to get a great meal. We hired a canoe and paddled out to the beautiful turquoise waters. Can't explain it you have to experience it yourself.

    Love the coastal area.

    Love the coastal area. Minimal traffic, high rise and not over developed. Beautiful beaches with blue tranquil water. Definitely Not a surfing beach. White sand . Seems like a very safe area. Good places to eat. Try the Country Club for a great meal or afternoon cocktails . Also the Atmos Greek Restaurant was very nice. 5 mins drive to Little Bay Boathouse a great restaurant we lived. 10 minutes to the larger town of Nelson Bay if you want to shop, dine, or need anything. Also a wharf there with fresh seafood available.

    It was a beautiful place, what would be good is a place to hire beach chairs. I didn't go to beach cause I can't sit without chair.Transport to airport was great right out side door nearly and cheap, bus driver helped put cases on and off.

    Well for start, we wr upgraded to unit 3, it was amazing, we wr actually going to stay in a cabin at the van park for 2 nights, no view, lots of other people around ya, but, this place was cheaper, awesome view, beach access right across the road. Inside is perfect, great lounge, awesome bed, magic deck with Shoal views, TV can log in to your own Prime/Netflix/YouTube, washing machine and great shower. We will put this on our regular list, we will never stay anywhere else in Shoal Bay.

    The location was central to many beaches (Box Beach, Fingal Bay, Shoal Bay) and the garden was lovely and well maintained. The air conditioning worked well and the bathrooms were clean and spacious. The bedrooms were also a good size. The property managers responded quickly when the hot water stopped working and rectified the problem within a few hours. The washing machine works well.

    The position of the cottage is great - right near a walk through bush to Wreck Beach and also to one of the hills in the area. Quiet area close to sea. The cottage is really cute, too. Obviously an older house which has been well renovated to make it comfortable for guests. Cottage is not far from Shoal Bay town.

    Beautiful stylish and spacious appartment close to the best areas of shoal bay! Just cross the road to the most beautiful spot on the beach and a delicious cafe directly under the appartment complex where we ate every day! We truly had the best time and would 100% recommend this place to anyone.

    The apartment was gorgeous, comfortable and well equipped. The view was spectacular and wonderful to wake up to. Location was also very convenient, plenty of restaurants in the area and few steps away from the beach. Mount Tomaree is also just a walking distance away.

    Loved the villa, felt cost and comfortable. Ideal for family vacation. The location was superb; as it is situated at Shoal Bay, close to the beach, nearby hikes and restaurants. We had a great time at the villa as a family. Very glad that we came here…
